"One block from The Washington Post, my friend and I walked into this old Paul space to find Mamma Dos under the same ownership as Paul. Mamma Dos looks the same as Paul, but has a bit more robust lunch menu. My friend enjoyed her bowl and I loved the tomato soup and grilled cheese. It was pricey ($20+ for grilled cheese and tomato soup), but it was good!"

"Great service and excellent food I had a Good baguette iberic ham and cheese sandwich. Excellent Good and friendly people"

"I stumbled across this eatery on a lunch scroll downtown DC. Best find ever. The tomato soup was one I talked about for the rest of the week - - so good! A must try."

"The service here never fails. Whether it’s busy or quiet, the vibes are always great. Love their freshly baked chocolate croissants."

"We frequently come to DC and were disappointed that Paul Bakery isn’t there anymore. The delightful twist is that the new Mamma Dos cafe is WONDERFUL!! Wasn’t expecting this at all. The service was exceptional and my croissant couldn’t have been better! Well done!"
